1. In approximately 500 words or less, please provide a general description of
your business. Please refer to your
mission and vision.
Summit Achievement is a licensed treatment center whose mission is to provide
nurturing and compassionate treatment programs for adolescents.
We provide teens and their families with opportunities for significant
personal growth—through unique programs which combine psychotherapy, outdoor
experiences, and classroom academics.
The vision of Summit is a supportive community that promotes positive
change for adolescents and their families through programs based on compassion,
honesty, and integrity.
Summit Achievement is located in
the Western Maine mountains. We
provides assessment, treatment and therapy to teens aged 13 to 20.
The program length is 6 to 8 weeks.
Students attend school 3 days each week and participate in outdoor
expeditions for 4 days each week.
As a recognized outdoor behavioral healthcare facility, Summit utilizes
individual therapy, group therapy, adventure therapy, and challenging classroom
academics to promote change in young persons who are experiencing poor classroom
performance, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and/or family conflict.
Utilizing a multi-systemic therapeutic approach, each student works with
an individual therapist who develops treatment planning and psychotherapy.
Parents and students participate in a conference call each week with
his/her therapist to promote family unity and open lines of communication.
Now in its 14 year of year round operation, Summit has provided positive
change to thousands of families.
2.
Specifically tell us who you
believe to be your most immediate competitors, what makes you different, who
should prefer you to the competitors and why.
Summits competitors are programs that work with “softer” kids who are not so
oppositional as to require an escort service.
Our most immediate competitor is Sol Treks.
Summit has a dynamic residential center where students spend a portion of
each week. This allows us to
provide challenging classroom academic and quality medical treatment that
traditional wilderness programs lack.
The program is conducive to families who would prefer their child attend
a traditional boarding or day school.
Our proximity and relationship to these schools allows us to have
students interview while enrolled at Summit.
The program is a strong advocate for student’s acceptance should he/she
student demonstrate growth and commitment.
